99% of this board never even heard of Tom Gamble or Dave Caldwell until 3 weeks ago.

Now all of the sudden we're up sh*ts creek without a paddle if we don't land one of them?

They we're the Jets top prospects as well until mysterious circumstances suddenly have us flying in every which direction. Now Woody's filling his slate with a bunch of second round talent that nobody had heard of until 3 hours ago.

I think Brian Gaine is going to be the next GM. He's not an established GM so I don't think the Rex thing will be a problem. He's a Parcells disciple, (Parcells recommended Rex Ryan for the HC job in the first place). Woody has a long history with this person.

2nd round talent?

LOL

Why? Because their names weren't included on some potential GM's list published by Cimini or Manish a month ago?

You're basing your "opinion" on their current team. But none of us know how good their scouting reports are and if the ultimate decision makers listen to their thoughts or not.

As I posted in the tweets thread our own Tony Pauline knows Gaine and speaks highly of him

This is very true. We're all just reacting to what we read on the internet. If Tony Pauline speaks highly of Gaine, that's as solid a recommendation as I've heard for any of the other candidates (excepting Gamble). I wonder where Tony would rate Gaine against the other mentioned candidates?

Brian Gaine worked for the Jets from 98 until Parcells went to Dallas so he knows Bradway et al. He's a Parcells' disciple who then followed Bill to the Dolphins in 2008. So he's got familiarity going for him and presumably he's going to get Bill's strong recommendation, which probably would carry a lot of weight with Woody. Throw in that he's not one of the hot candidates and so he's probably more likely to accept the shotgun wedding with Rex, and it all adds up ---- he's the Jets' man.

I didn't know this at all. It does sound logical especially the Bradway link...
